Nicolas Ghesquiere wasted no time in putting his own stamp on the iconic codes of Louis Vuitton, and the Louis Vuitton Cruise 2015 collection is the latest continuation in his reimagining of the monograms and materials that we all know and (maybe) love. The collection just hit stores and Vuitton’s online boutique, and if you’re not a logo lover, there’s plenty for you here.
Relatively few of these seasonal bags are made with monogram canvas, and many of them lack external branding at all. Instead, Ghesquiere’s accessories team has let Vuitton’s ultra-recognizable materials and shapes speak for themselves. With a brand that has such great recognition among consumers, there’s no need to belabor the point, and these bags largely avoid doing that. Perhaps more importantly, they mostly seem like the kinds of pieces that would be a lot of fun to buy and use. Check out the collection below, complete with prices. The only thing missing is the Pinch bag; it’s slated to be released soon, but there’s no information available on the brand’s website yet.








































Louis Vuitton recently goes crazy with their bags – in a good way! I’m glad we don’t see the monogram as much anymore. My favourite from this collection is the Malletage Pochette Flap Bag and Alma in golden-black pattern 🙂

Do not like these collections. Would not buy any of it. Love monogram but adding these whimsical twists is definetely not my cup of tea.
I like the ideas and shapes behind a lot of these, but they are way too busy!
Some of them look like LV meets Joan Miro. The red quilted criss cross with white kind of reminds me of a Christmas ham. Not loving it.
I am such a fan of the direction they are going. I like most of these bags. Really fun and cool.
Trying to make things playful a la Fendi but failing miserably. Too much detail in too little space.
Failing? I think sales would probably suggest otherwise.
A definite Fendi vibe for many of these, I agree!
The twist lock ones remind me of the Chanel boy but it looks really cool! Next on my wishlist!
I love this new collection and I am glad LV is moving away from the Marc Jacobs years. There is a clear attention to details in these bags, and the use of all the house codes in new and inventive ways shows a great interest in both innovation and heritage.
Not right
what is going on in slide 11. looks like a kindergarten project
Not a fan of this collection but I like that LV is being more playful in the design aspect.
I like the last one the V hobo looks nice but not for $4400…I wish instead of bumping up the prices brands would just create a limited amount of the bags so you have to get in quick to buy the ones you really love
Ouf — not usually a fan of LV, but definitely pro-Ghesquiere. The twist line is just too cool, and a lot of these feel like a nice (interesting) departure from the look I tend to associate with Vuitton.
Love the v hobo but not for that price!
I like these bags, but I don’t love any of them enough to pay these prices.
Holy price on these bags! I would just buy a Chanel for that money!
love the trible mask collection!so much fun.
I’m obsessed.
Simple designs but looking is very nice.All these wallets are adorable.
